February is Heart Health Month. With that in mind, I set out to share a lightened up version of a favorite pasta dish. One pot sausage pasta is made with Mazola Corn Oil instead of butter, whole wheat pasta instead of white pasta, and Italian sausage made of turkey instead of pork. Even with these lightened up swaps, it is still a comforting and flavorful meal that takes under 30 minutes to prepare.
